There’s one in the wrist that won’t heal on its own without some surgical help.

I'll vouch for that. Broke mine so badly in August that the forearm came over my wrist. Took two titanium "T's" and 12 screws to put my wrist back to where it was supposed to be and back together. Still in physical therapy to get some of the range of motion back and it looks like I'm going to permanently lose some motion of my right thumb the injury and breaks were so bad.

It's been a rough summer here. Broke a vertebrae, then fractured my tailbone, then my wrist. All one right after another, all three separate falls. Sucks getting older.

Geez; you’re practically a war veteran with all those injuries.

OUCH. Sorry to read this. I had a hard year with a spine issue, and it took a while to get to full recovery. But your year sounds worse.

Getting old might indeed suck...
...but it beats the alternative!
